Welcome to our user guide
We designed Files Converter to be simple, but this guide explains each workflow clearly so you can move faster.
Organize PDF
Merge PDF
Upload two or more PDF files from your device, Google Drive, or Dropbox, then reorder them before combining. Password-protected files are supported once unlocked for processing. When ready, click merge and download one PDF.
Split PDF
Upload a PDF and split by custom page ranges, extract every page, or combine selected ranges into one output. You can process protected files after entering credentials.
Remove Pages
After upload, each page appears as a thumbnail. Select pages to remove, then run processing and download the cleaned file. Multi-file uploads are color-framed for easier page identification.
Extract Pages
Pick pages you want to keep, then choose either one merged PDF output or a ZIP package with separate extracted pages.
Organize PDF
Rearrange page order with drag-and-drop and remove unwanted pages before exporting the reorganized document.
Optimize and Edit PDF
Compress PDF
Choose regular, high, or extreme compression. Stronger compression usually gives smaller files with more quality reduction. Download the result or save back to cloud storage.
Edit PDF
Use the editor toolbar to add text, images, and shapes, adjust style properties, move/resize items, zoom, and navigate pages. Finalize by clicking Edit PDF to process and export.
Add Page Numbers
Number all pages or selected ranges/facing pages, then customize position, style, size, color, and opacity before export.
Add Watermark
Apply text and/or image watermark to every page with custom rotation, position, transparency, and formatting settings.
Repair PDF
Upload damaged PDF files and Files Converter will attempt to analyze and recover readable content automatically.

PDF Security and Signature

Technical concepts
Password-protected files
We ask for the password only to open/process your file and do not store it on our servers.
Rotating and organizing files
Rotate per file/page, batch rotate when available, drag-drop reorder, and sort alphabetically or reverse alphabetically.
Compression expectations
You will see original size and reduction percentage. Already optimized PDFs may not shrink further.
Uploading, processing, and download retention
Processing time depends on network speed, file size, and server load. Download availability depends on user plan. You can save outputs back to Google Drive/Dropbox and revoke shared download access when needed.
Working from the cloud
Files Converter supports direct cloud import/export so files do not need to be stored locally first. This is especially useful on mobile and tablet devices.
Selecting multiple files
Use Ctrl-click for non-consecutive selections, Shift-click for ranges, or simply drag and drop into the canvas.
Minimum requirements and troubleshooting
Recommended browsers are Chrome, Firefox, Explorer 10+, and Safari with JavaScript enabled. If you run into issues, contact support and attach a sample file when possible (non-confidential) to speed diagnosis.
